490R in the bridge / 498T in the neck
Good overall finish, just the Gibson logo and crown (of the head) begin to crackle varnish (mine is 2008).
[b]UTILIZATION[/b]
With a Faded SG, the handle of the Standard is better for my taste.
Weight (just over 3kg) is nice when playing several hours standing with this guitar.
Access to acute is easy due to its double-cutaway. I use it a lot for the last string of solos, most difficult thing with other guitars ...
[b]SOUNDS[/b]
The Gibson SG Standard is perfect for my style of play that is the rock.
But it is also quite effective in the field of blues.
Plugged into a Fender amp (100 watts mustang 3 V2), the record is good. This guitar sounds as good clean sound with a large saturation.
I play most often in the neck position, the record is very good.
[b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]
I use it for one month now, I'm tired.
Before purchasing this little gem, I had:
- Gibson SG Faded
- Epiphone Wildkat
- Squier Telecaster Bigsby Cabronita
- Squier Classic Vibe Stratocaster 60's
It has now become my main guitar.
Varnish, binding around the handle, pins perloid and logo pearl on the head gives a look more "class" has only the Standard Faded ...
Standard comes in a nice hard case with a white wig or should be forced to make it slightly back while Faded comes in a single-bag gib.
So if you want a nice guitar to play rock and the budget allows, do not hesitate, than to take the Standard;)

us manufacturing, handle 60's, mahogany and rosewood fingerboard, 22 frets, pickups 490R and 498T in the handle easel, 2 volumes, 2 tones, while very progressive way, 3-position selector, nothing original to a gibson sg standard, but if this is research, it's just parfait.le varnish according to more or less light is red or orange, it's just simple but very beautiful, you can see the ribs wood.The body is 3 parties It's not that it's ugly but surprising, especially since it is normally on the one part, but hey I think it makes no difference son.Les level finishes are just excellent, no grip, no false connections I heard enough gibson manufactured crap ends badly, for my part, no complaint, it's just nickel.
[b]UTILIZATION[/b]
the handle for good grip thinner than a gibson sg faded which I believe to handle 50's, access to acute is optimal (obviously for sg), and yes you get a good sound for those who love jazz with 490 blues in an intermediate position, and see the rock metal microphones chevalet.ultra versatile.
[b]SOUNDS[/b]
my music wanting more towards the metal, this guitar normally is not me, it is very obviously for the ac / dc, but the trash, death metal, hardcore, etc, etc ... it is a fair bit less to boost your amp with a good distortion pedal + a boost, and it really is the foot, I am amused to pay me to drop and it is délire.On has a full sound , fat (according to distortion), the sustain and sound Gibbie aggressive for the stoner, the sabbath, big sound what ...
clean sounds, I also like to play pure, without effects on, everything is good, arpeggio, chords, on the other hand was a round and warm and not crystalline, we must not forget that these are the humbuckers.je plays on a small tube amp excellent, ibanez tube screamer with 5 tsa integrated, it is a treat, whether in blues, jazz, light saturated or there is nothing to throw.
[b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]
it'll soon be three years since I have, I had tried everything maple and a faded sg sg raw power, and inevitably this is the standard that I was most attached, although the raw was not bad but feeble to come out with 57 compared to 490 498.Ce I like most is necessarily the sound I get out, and the form of the 50 banks whose granny I changed mechanical for Grovers for better tuning stability. What to say except that this guitar covers a lot of styles, it is versatile, multipurpose, you can even do with funk (intermediate position in clean + boost pedal, sisi ...) this old version of the sg is for me the most attractive, new since 2013 are almost copied / pasted on sg 61 and more expensive Mine to further the interests frieze it a little adjustment in the luthier should fix it. 750 euros secondhand she is, and even today it also costs chère.je do it again this choice without hesitation despite some flaws (who does not?) possède.Reste it anyway to try a few copies sg voodoo, threat, dead, supreme, 61 by changing the pickup gothic, and the grail, Tony Iommi sg, which is just perfect, but most occurred.

Gibson sg standard 2010 made in USA
Easel Tune O'Matic
Channel 60's profile mahogany
-22 Frets with keys oysters, two of Gibson a 498 t in the bridge and a 490 r handle
-2 Volumes, two tones and a three-position selector
[b]UTILIZATION[/b]
- The handle although it is more impressive than a strat is very nice and is great in hand, shred plans are very possible for the most talented.
-The interface is excellent, the guitar is very light and profile C can navigate well on the handle without anything coming gener our progress. A downside, however about the game seated, the handle tends to nosedive.
- Access to acute is optimal, is is disconcerting.
- It is easy to get a good sound but a lot depends on your config as a bad amp with bad effects = bad sound (regardless of whether the guitar is 100 or 2000 euros)
[b]SOUNDS[/b]
- This guitar suits my style: Alternative Rock, guitar itself has a lot of medium, more than treble to me (this problem does not necessarily have can be solved by setting the tone and the trebble your amp max)
However this is a much more versatile guitar you might think, you just tame, play on the guitar tones from the amp ... You can play with almost all pop, blues, hard rock, jazz, grunge, punk ... except sounds too extreme or too slamming (strat / tele style)
- The sounds are rather fat and rather focus on the midrange, treble and the bass is round and warm.
- I use a Laney Cub 12 and a pedal overdrive Boss SD1
- I love the sound of this guitar very rock. There really its not that I hate, as I have already said just spend a little time on the settings to find what you're looking for.
[b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]
I use it for a me now, this is my first real guitar after a Squier Stratocaster, suddenly the comparison did not even place to be ^ ^.
However, I have not try a lot of other guitars among friends and in stores (U.S. Strat, Jaguar, gibson les paul studio, Prs Custom 24 With ...) The strat remains my favorite guitar model but a short head, because whatever the level of finishes or its SG buries most of the guitars that I've experienced.
The feature I like most is that optimal access to acute and very light body, I am less a fan of the neck pickup but that's pretty subjective.
I remake this choice a thousand times, I could not find better value for money level (buy 700 euros with lots of accessories to a guy who does not play guitar)

I just note that this icon of Rock'n'Roll is equipped with the famous PAF 490R and 498T.
USE
On my 2004 model finish is good. The comfortable handle, if not I find them a little higher frets, offers good grip and as often with Gibson, it is manly and warm. It is a lightweight and responsive guitar.
SOUNDS
The sound is fabulous, much in the clear with the neck pickup that popping sound in any position. Swallowing! It's amazing how a mahogany board can send a sound as easily as evil.
NOTICE GLOBAL
Guitarist in my life, this is the third time I come back to this affordable Gibson strong character. Must!

[b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]
The 3 years that I used. It is a 2010 and is perfect
I ve tested stratovolcano. Basically this is what I voulai and to rock as I voulai I never sortai sound that made me reversible.
Quality / price ratio. Pretty good.
I remake that choice but I also could have done other choice because I love the huge round but thinner handle should fit me better

USA Gibson sg std 2010.
[b]UTILIZATION[/b]
Yes, the handle is nice, wide.
Light and balanced guitar.
[b]SOUNDS[/b]
Micro good round. It is fairly clear. To play clear or saturated, it's good. Ideal Led Zeppelin Black Sabbath Zappa was sound.
Pickup to throw. His loud and messy, nothing to learn.
[b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]
I played this guitar regularly for two years to honor my purchase more than pleasure. I made the HUGE mistake of buying over the Internet to pay less. Too bad for me.
This instrument is not one.
Sold there one month for less than 600 euros in new condition because this guitar is not worth more.
A guitar that has been lovingly restored and yet when I activais the pickup selector, there were loose connections or when the sound was cut.
"A shame".
That's what I told myself for 2 years.
Fortunately, I had my stratocaster us, a fabulous guitar sends heavy in all registers, a musical instrument that meets the notes and music that makes you want to create.
Gibson is, in my opinion, become a brand governed by shareholders who do not care about music as their first sock.
They should have, however, advance in their field, improve the quality of instrumentals, the opposite happened.
If you hesitate, good advice:
Music Alive!

[b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]
I bought it as a "mule" for my music and I'm never served over 30s ...
Sold as soon as I found my 72 ...
Tip: If you want an SG that sounds a single solution, type in vintage at least 20 years, the wood is dry and stable guitar pickups are weathered, the sound is unmistakable ... Gibson even themselves!

Everything has already been said, but we will start:
Body and mahogany / nitro lacquer
Rosewood key
22 frets
2 Gibson humbuckers (490R / 498T)
2 volume / 2 tone (a couple micro)
3-position toggle switch
Made in USA
Difficult to give a note about this kind of topic for a guitar. We will put 10 because if you want a guitar to meet the spec: everything is
[b]UTILIZATION[/b]
Handle this well, we feel good, but still very fun to play. Access to treble is excellent. The knobs are too close to each other, so that it can play a little tricky if you are not used and that has shaped fingers socks (this is not my case).
Bcp complain Mecha Gibson tulip, for my part I do not have to complain about my guitar that has been 10 years (I can bcp chance but I do not have either on my pbs Another Gibson ...)
Nitro lacquer very comfortable, it provides good vibration of the guitar that makes the q'on feels good.
The guitar is just even in very low tuning (I play in A). Even a PRS custom 22 I owned had more trouble with this kind of tuning (it's still a great guitar still a PRS).
Always such a gibson to set the jumpers: it's effective. The same for the adjustment of the handle. The pickups? is simple: two screws each for height adjustment and a screw rope and microwave for finer adjustments. In short, we can adjust as we REALLY want.
No definitely not much to say about it. I'll put 9 knobs even if me they fit me just fine.
[b]SOUNDS[/b]
Personally I think this guitar can suit any type of music, but good if you prefer to play funky casseroles nothing will ever replace a strat.
I play, blues rock, hard, metal, metal very large and sometimes looking for jazzy sounds. Everything goes without needing to do this concession! Never found such a versatile guitar. After fau love the character of this guitar because it is very (VERY VERY) present. The sound is generally quite bold but against very accurate. Well complex or sensitive agreements, which sometimes come evil big distortion, are super articulated: all notes agree. Arpeggios distortion out very well.
In clean sound is very rich with a very large dynamic range (it's not good either single coil huh!). We're doing great things in clean with this guitar, it sounds not dry for a penny but it's not as long as it is boiled. No, no sound is still beautifully balanced (as long as its microphones is adjusted as desired)
The rest is very subjective (hence my 10) but I've played and owned a lot of guitars (jackson USA and Japan, USA PRS, Fender USA and Mexico, Ibanez Japan Korea Philippine Whale Kore, BC Rich China / NJ, Kore Epiphone, ESP Japan, Kore LTD, Schecter, ...) And frankly many were great guitars, but I can not help with this guitar (a very recent purchase) I finally found exactly what I was looking for.
Contrary to what one might think cete grate rather recommended for rock / hard is super comfortable in the clean and crunch, and tears all about extreme distos (I sometimes play stuff like Nevermore, Cannibal Corpse, etc ...)
After this purchase I will probably keep more than one, the Fender USA and Mexico, and probably buy me one for a more civilized tuning ^ ^
[b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]
For me (but beware this is very subjective) this is the best guitar I've ever played.
More objectively:
This is a guitre comfortable everywhere except perhaps for the slamming funk well (but at the same time learn to be comfortable for funk and jazz for such I do not know if you can find it). The sound is clear and rich with a nice character.
€ 850 for a secondhand guitar in new condition and ten years of age. The qualité-performance/prix report is IMHO unbeatable I put 10 without hesitation.
